[BMPTKk'S TRt.FORAM.J PAWS FAITI'.EAY- In the Chamber of Deputies to-day 51. peluncle put tbt, question of which ho had given notice rejjardinc; the effect of the Antjlo-lrench declaration of guaran- teeing the independence of Zanzibar upon the provision in the Anglo German jgrevruent for a Dritish protect* rate over thd that the deolaration haei not fallen into ab-rarw-l and that France had done nothing and said nothing to give rise to the belief that she had repudiated the dt-claratioii. Great Britain, therefore, oould not violate it, and before establishing her protectorate in Zanzibar must ask the consent of France. M Kibot, Minister of Foreign Affairs, in reoly, laid that Article of the Berlin Convention reudered it obligatory upon every nation desirous of establishing a protectorate in Africa to communicate its intentions to the other I'owers. Great Britain would not fail to fulfil this obligation, all the more inasmuch as in ) -1,2 she signed a convention engaging to respect the iudepen- dence of Zanzibar. She could not, therefore, take any action without a previous under- standing with France. The Government," said the Minister in conclusion, "has received 110 communication from Great Britain, with whom, while respecting oar o,.vu rights, we desire to preserve the best relations, in any ,'8Y, it is not by declarations from the tribune that we can enter into conimunica tions with another nation." l" NEW TOKK HKBAID TRI.FORAM.] JKt,t<H.t-ATCRDAt I had an interview to-day with Admiral Werner, the oldest and most experienced naval officer of whom Germany can boast, lie expressed himself as deeply incensed at the Anglo-German agreement, and is of opinion the Heligoland is little better than useless for am practical purposes as far as Germany is corioerned. Expensive fortifications will be required, and it is doubtful, according to this high authority, if these will compensate the fatherland for the lost position at Zanzibar.

THE POLITICAL SITUATION. I HUMOURED WITHDRAWAL OF Till. COMPENSATION CLAUSES. The Wttk/:¡ I>\<pulch »ayj A meeting cf (he Cabinet took place yesterday (Saturday), at which the state of public business wite considered. It is stated in well-informed quarters that Ministers hare at last yielded to the pressure of public opinion and decided to abandon the compensation cl»u«f3 of the Locil Taxation Bill. A statement to this effect may be expected in the Uou^e of Commons to-morrow I. Monday) afternoon." The Central News saysThe first order in the programme of business for tGodlY (Monday) in the House of Commons is the motion which Mr. W. U. Smith will move," That a select committee be appointed to inquire whether, by means of an abridged form of procedure or otherwise, the con- sideration of Bills which have been partly con- ,iJe. cd in this House could be facilitated in the next ensuing aession of the "me Parliament." The second order is the Local Taxation (Customs and Excise Luties) Bill.coinmonly known as the Compensation Bill. The House has only succeeded in affirming the first clause, and is at the commencement of the second, to which there are 30 amendments. When these hare been disposed of Dr. Cameron will move that the clause be omitted altogether. ritere are in all 182 amendments, covering 21 pages, many pages in excess of the claus which it is sought to amend by their exiinction. Several take the form of new clauses, standing in the name principally of L',rd Randolph Churchill, wlw has, in addition, a batch of amendments to clauses and parts of clauses. What are known as the time clauses of the Bill will develop con- siderable contention on the Ministerial side of the Bouse. The amendment of which Mr. Heneage has given notice is amended in its turn by bit- William Harcourt. "If," said tbe member for (irimitiy on Saturday, "the Government oppose lilY amendment, they will be beaten upon it by from 20 to 30. If they leave it to the lIou. it will ba carried by 100 majority." The Central News adds that it is regarded as utterly hopeless to expect the Bill to go through committee as it stands, and without the assistance of heroic measures, under a fortnight or three weeks. At the meeting of Ministers on Saturday a strong feeling was expressed by a section of the Cabinet against wasting any more time upon it, and there are conflicting rumours that the Clausen will be either dropped at once or be reported on a certain day.

THE TEMPERANCE PARTY AND THE GOVERNMENT PROPOSALS. I A CARDIFF ONSTRATlON I PROPOSED. Speaking at the weekly temperance meeting held at the StU3Tl.ball, Cardiff, on Saturday night, the Rev. D. Young referred to the action of the corporation in rejecting the moti-n of Mr. E. Boa van on the Local Taxation Hill. If Councillor Smith, lie said, who was a publiciu, had proposed tho amendment which was carried, they would not have been surprised or disappointed, he numbered some friend, in ilie cruncil, but ility had to look higher even than men at times, and they hid to consider whether they weio wonh anything in this great trinperance movement. iApplaus^.) But when thev learned that Councillor Thomas Keea w is tho first to move the ameudmcnt they were pained. And when they heard that sune of their leading religious men in the town had taken up a position of opposition to the movement they were surprised. If those frcinds would tell them that tliey were in favour of the trade they would know what to do at theelection.. (Applause.) The try. gentlemau spok., on tho leg,la"pect of the qurstion vi compN}s"tiou, and ønid, if the Uovernmcnt did not" athdraw those clauses before tile end úf llpxt weelr, they ought to git up a great demonstration in Cardiff and show their strength. (Applause.)

DISSATISFACTION AMONG I CARDIFF VOLUNTERRS. I OPPOSITION TO THE AMALGAMA- I TION. FEELING AMONG THE MEN. I The amalsamation of the let and 2nd Cardiff I Detachments of the 3..1 V.B. Welsh Regiment con- tinues to excite considerable interest, and the impression that the step was, to sty the least, an impolitic one is gaining ground. Bo h dctachmems arc jealou9 of their traditions, and they feel that they are now losinj their individuality. When the 2nd Glamorgan was changed from nn administra- tive to a consolidated battalion, in lSùCl, there was a great deal of feeling among the members of the lotli because tbey wire losing their old number. That was a matter of sentiment, and it is the same feeling which prevails now m opposition to the amalgamation which Colonel Cresswell and Captain Norton have brought about. Each detach- ment would prefer to be let aloue. This is fully borne out by tbe small attendance at parades. When out of six companies there is only a muster of about 50 men, it is obvious that both the 1st and 2nd Detachments disapprove of the new con- dition of things. Some of the non-commissioned officers have endeavoured to bring about a better feeling between the companies, and Mr. Councillor Thomas Rees, who has been for very many years a private in the "old 10th," has shown his opinion of tbe matter by attending the drills. In order to ascertain the cature of the grievances which the men complain about, a repre- sentative of the n'estcin Mail waited upon a popular ex-member of the 1st Detachment, who is credited with a better knowledge of the feelings and aspirations of bis former comrades than many who are still in tbeicorpe. Asked as to his vitwi on the amalgamation, be said It (the amalgamation) has been suggested on various occasions, but has always been scouted by our fellows. It is a sentimental feeling, no doubt, but it exists very strongly amongst the members of the 1st Detachmsit." Is it a fact that the 1st Detachment hare any ,b j e?t' &i 'at tllw of the 2.d ?" cb"N:,oi eN:r;II;'I tI:: together before, but the 1st always prided themselves upoo being the better soldiers. They are men of better education, and for that reason tbey drilled with more intelligence than the ottiei-coinpanies. Tbey were proud of their traditions, and did all tliey could to keep up the credit of their detachment. You will never see a let man turn out dirty His- uniform and belt are always scrupulously clean, and he behaves in a soldierly manner." Are you not now touching upon the matter I mentioned at first-the personnel of the two de- tachments?" II Well, perhaps I aID. A member of the let going through the stnet8 clean and tidy would not like to be clused with a comrade who took little pain. with his uniform and slouched along with a clay pipe in his mouth. I think the battalion ought to be divided. The 1st and 2nd Cardiff Detachments and the Penartb Company would make a good battalion, and we would then be under the command of a local officer, The amal- gamation lias beq" pet scheme of Captain and Adjut"nt ,orton, who was under the imprewon that the men would take kindly to it." In conversations with members of the 2nd Detachment our reporter found that, though the feeling is not so strong against the amalgama- tion, there is no desire for it. In fairness to the 2nd, we should state that during the put five years a great improvement has taken placo in the respectability of the men. Care has been taken to ascertain whether men bear voodctittricter. before limy arc sworn in. Tliey have, howaver, nn impres- sion that the members of the F and G Companies "look down upon them, and for this reawm they liavo absented themselves from drill. Captain J. J. f);tvid has issued a circular to the members of the F and 0, in which he refers to the ofler made by Major Haskell to accept the resigna- tion of any member within a month, and goes on to say "This offer entirely disposes of the complaint that the amalgamation was effected too late in the yen to allow of tl'ose who did not approve of it illing back on n Volnnlper's IMt resource- resignation. Now, ns your late commanding officer, nd as one whom you will allow has done something in the past to merit your confidence, I appeal to you, by the traditions of the old 10th you inherit, by tlio fact that you ti e ever been rkII'1 b; 'r1;1) r,hllïIvd:h in the regiment, don't belle your character now, but act like- soldiers should, and make up your minds to give Major tiaskell, your old comrade nnd commanding officcr, your thorough support in the face of these present difficulties. Don't be led away by the comparatively few who are now ondewouring to perpetuale I tho prf?ent dhotiJfaction, but rather follow the ""a of those old and tried non-commissioned officers and men who have shown their moral courage by attending parade in spite of the pressure that has been brought to bear upon tbem. Finally, I would suggest that the members of F and 0 Companies should attend the regimental cimp in such numbers that we mav again prove that the gentlemen of the old 10th are still to the front amongst the Volunteers of Wales." The mouth during which resignations will be received ends on the 17th of July, and those who take advantage of this offer will be released from any liability in regard to the capitation grant they nhould have earned. Any member who after the 17th 01 July consistently neglects to attend drills without giving sufficient reason will be dis- missed. TO T«B RDrrOB OP IB* WKST1BN MAIS." Sin,—May I ask you to give me a small space in your paper to appeal to my comrades of the Cardiff Detachment not to accept Maiol Gaskell's offer and resign within a month t Like many others in both the old detachments, I have a great dislike to the new order of things; but my love of soldiering and the force to which I belong forbid. my adopting the tactica of manv of my old com- rades. It is <t fMt. notwithtt?nding the assertion of 'Another Member of the Cardiff Detachment to the contrary, that the seed of discon. tent is 'own by the ma j or portion of ::It member* of blacb Im:a:r n!rtmi: the new detachment. I have been, and now am, a regular attendant at all drills, and can, there- fore, speak the more confidently on this point. The breaking up ot old institutions must, and will, give a real deal of pain to many of us who were fond .( the old detachments. But duty must be placed first, and not sentiment, and discipline maintained. Tho order has been issued, and I appeal to those who have tho Volunteer service at heart to obey it. It cannnot now be altered, and out of every evil good will be sure to come. and if the excellent letter which appeared in your issuo of Thursday last (and which represents very accurately the feelings of both detachments in this matter) be ctell upon, Cardiff will, through the amalgamation of the two detachments, soon have its own battalion. Doubtless Colonel Cresswell had in his mind when issuing the order that the Cardiff Detachment would form a nucleus for a battalion, and no one knows better than he does how necessory It is that t lie 3rd V.11. Welsh (2,000 strong), for the sake of discipline and elficioncy, should be split up. I hope, now that it has been suggested through the press, that he will take fteps to bring it about as speedily as possible, and at the samo time it is confidently hoped that he will retain the supreme command of the two battalions thu, formed n the brigadier.—I om, &:c..
